never forget [criminal investigation]

Xiang Hai arrived at the door of Xing Yue's house early in the morning the next day, and without knocking on the door, he took out the key to open the door and went in.

Before getting off the car last night, he asked Xing Yue to send him a message when he got home.But until he fell asleep, the phone didn't move.

When I opened my eyes this morning, I saw the message from Xing Yue at three o'clock in the morning.Tell him to go to the old director's house tomorrow as originally planned, let him come over early, and open the door directly with the key without knocking.

"Brother Xing?"

Turning around and closing the door, Xiang Hai called softly, but he didn't hear any movement in the room.

So he took off his shoes, but found that Xing Yue's family still didn't have a second pair of slippers, so he had to walk into the house barefoot.

He went to the bedroom first, and saw that the bed was upright without any trace of sleeping, so he went to the living room again.

Sure enough, Xing Yue was lying on the sofa in the living room and fell asleep without even changing his clothes.

He hesitated to wake him up.

Listening to the sound of breathing, he should be in a deep sleep, but judging by his posture, he feels that he is not sleeping well.

Xiang Hai walked over and sat down next to him, shaking his arm lightly, "Brother Xing?"

Xing Yue didn't move, but seemed to say "um".It's just that my head is stuffed under the sofa cushions, and I can't hear clearly.

Xiang Hai's nose twitched, as if he smelled alcohol.Leaning closer to Xing Yue again, the smell of alcohol became stronger.

Good guy, you ran out to drink in the middle of the night?

He shook it vigorously, "Brother Xing, wake up, don't you feel bored?"

"Ah." Only then did Xing Yue officially wake up, and he lifted the cushion on his head, his hair was disheveled, and his face was full of exhaustion.

He turned his head and stared at it for a while before he could barely focus, "You, why did you come in?"

"..."

Xiang Hai frowned, "Didn't you ask me to come in with the key, and I'm not allowed to knock on the door."

"Oh." Xing Yue remembered, closed his eyes again, and laughed lazily, "You're really welcome."

"Fuck!" Xiang Hai blushed and immediately stood up, "Then I'm leaving."

"Hey!" Xing Yue grabbed his arm and pulled him back to the sofa, laughing even harder, "You man, why are you so careless, narrow-minded."

Xing Yue just lay there on the sofa, limp, completely devoid of his usual energy, and kept laughing inexplicably.Xiang Hai thinks this is very abnormal.

"Brother Xing, I think you may be sick." He reached out to touch Xing Yue's forehead, and felt that the temperature was normal.

"Who is sick, who are you scolding?" Xing Yue said, but put his hand on the back of Xiang Hai's hand, holding him down, "I think you just want to find an opportunity to touch me and take advantage of me. "

"I didn't see it, you're quite lewd."

At this moment, Xiang Hai is almost certain that this person has drunk too much and is not fully awake yet.

Xiang Hai's hand is very warm, the kind of temperature that makes people greedy, like the first breeze after summer.

Xing Yue's own palm was a bit cold, so he held on to that hand tightly, and took it all the way to his eye sockets.

"Brother Xing..."

After being so quiet for a long time, Xiang Hai felt more and more that something was wrong with Xing Yue, and he also became nervous.

The eye sockets under his palm were hot, but the touch on the back of his hand was cold.And Xing Yue didn't say anything, didn't move, just pressed his hand firmly, as if he was afraid that something would slip through his fingers.

Xiang Hai was very worried, but he didn't dare to disturb him, so he could only stand aside, watching his Adam's apple rolling back and forth for a long time, and then said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Hai, if I say, I miss me now." Dad, will you laugh at me?"

Xiang Hai looked at him in surprise, he couldn't guess what he experienced last night, but he immediately said, "No."

"Really?" Xing Yue shook his head, rubbing against Xiang Hai's palm, "How could this happen? I have always hated him."

"He doesn't even remember my birthday, and he doesn't even know what university I went to."

"You know Xiaohai, we don't even have a group photo together." Xing Yue's nose fluttered, his voice trembling, "But he took such a beautiful photo of Qu Wei, they must be very happy."

He tried his best to suppress his emotions, but his chest heaved violently.

"Then what am I? Did I do something wrong? Shouldn't I hate him?"

Xiang Hai sighed silently, feeling that his palms were wet.

"But now I actually miss him. After so many years, it's nothing to hate. Tell me, why am I so irrelevant?"

Xiang Hai took Xing Yue's hand away, and his own hand also left his eyes.

Xing Yue immediately turned his face away, and squeezed into the gap of the sofa back, his eyelashes were curled and wet.

Xiang Hai turned his face back, gently rubbed his fingertips at the corners of his eyes, and took away those unwilling tears.

"Brother Xing, you have no position, you are obviously very firm."

He laughed and scratched Xing Yue's messy short hair, "I think, in fact, you have always thought about him, and you only hate him because you didn't get a response."

"The more you hate him, the more you miss him."

"To put it bluntly, it's the same thing at all. Why do you compare yourself to yourself? You're crying."

Xing Yue frowned and sniffed.

Xiang Hai put his hands on both sides of his body, and shook his head with emotion, "I didn't say you, Brother Xing, why do you cry so much? This puts me under a lot of pressure."

"Fuck!" Xing Yue immediately struggled to sit up, "I haven't finished my fucking pain yet, you're just fucking laughing at me..."

"Don't move around, I haven't finished yet." Xiang Hai pushed him back directly, and put his hands on his shoulders, "I sneaked out to drink by myself in the middle of the night, huh?"

He raised his eyebrows, his eyes slanted close to Xing Yue's open neckline, "Still slandering me? Saying I took advantage of you?"

As he spoke, he raised his collar, tilted his head and looked inside, "This is what I call taking advantage of you, you know?"

"Oh, Brother Xing, you have such a good figure." He licked his lower lip lewdly.

"Fuck!" At this moment Xing Yue had almost forgotten everything, wanted to climb but couldn't get up, his neck was red with anxiety, "You stinky rascal!"

Xiang Hai couldn't help laughing, "Who are the stinky hooligans? You tricked me over early in the morning and let me open the door by myself, but you deliberately came here in such disheveled clothes, hooking me up to make mistakes. Yesterday you were How did you educate me?"

Xing Yue was angry and embarrassed by what he said, raised his arms to cover his eyes, and laughed too,

After laughing for a while, he suddenly asked, "Xiao Hai, to be honest, I'm always like this... Do you think I'm worthless? Do you despise me?"

Xiang Hai took it.There are so many mental activities in this person, and they are all clearly displayed?

He kissed Xing Yue hard on the lips, and then took his arm away, "Brother Xing, if I say that I like you from the bottom of my heart, this good-for-nothing, would you think I Perverted?"

Xing Yue looked at him, raised his hand and scratched his cheek, "You are quite perverted."

"Fuck, you're really annoying." Xiang Hai stood up from the sofa and reached out to pull Xing Yue, "Stop dawdling, Uncle Lu and Aunt Liu are still waiting for us."

Xing Yue was dragged up and straightened his clothes, "I'll take a shower first, it will be soon.

"Then I'll go prepare breakfast." Xiang Haibin said as he walked out.He specially prepared breakfast and brought it here in the morning.

"Hey," Xing Yue pulled him back, "Why are you barefoot?"

"What do you say?"

Xing Yue hurriedly took off his shoes to him, and stood barefoot by himself, "Next time you come here with slippers."

"..." Xiang Hai gave him a thumbs up, "Okay, I'm convinced."

Xing Yue smiled and got into the bathroom, turned around and closed the door.

Xiang Hai washed his hands, found two bowls, and divided the rice porridge he brought into two portions.

Soon there was the sound of water in the bathroom.Xiang Hai sat down at the dining table and sighed.

Two hours later, they knocked on the door of Lu Songjiang's house with the things they bought from the supermarket.

Aunt Liu opened the door.As usual, there was a smile on the face when we met, and then we commented on the two of them as usual.

"Xiaohai looks much better, but his hair has grown, so it's time to cut it."

"Xing Yue's complexion is not very good," she frowned, and pinched Xing Yue's arm again, "It seems to be thinner. You should eat more later, and make up for it!"

The three of them entered the living room lively.Lu Songjiang was leaning on the old recliner, smiling and beckoning them to sit down.

As soon as Xiang Hai sat on the sofa, Lu Songjiang asked him, "Xiao Hai, how is your transfer going?"

Xiang Hai glanced at Xing Yue, then turned around and said, "Brother Xing said that the transfer order will come down in about ten days."

Lu Songjiang just oh, and didn't say anything more.

"Transfer? Where are you going to transfer?" Aunt Liu obviously only knew the news, and asked in surprise, "You don't plan to be a policeman anymore?"

"No, Aunt Liu, it's transferred to the branch." Xiang Hai explained, "It's Brother Xing and the others."

"Yo, then you are going to work under Xing Yue?" Aunt Liu laughed.

"No, Aunt Liu, Xiang Hai is going to be an anti-narcotics police officer." Xing Yue took the initiative to report truthfully.

"What?" Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu stood up abruptly, looked at Xiang Hai, then stared at Lu Songjiang.Seeing that he didn't have the slightest surprise expression, he pointed at him fiercely, and then pointed at Xiang Hai, "You two, you can do it!"

Lu Songjiang waved at her, "This is Xiaohai's own business, don't meddle in it." Then he glanced at his watch, "Isn't it about making dumplings, hurry up and get ready, what time is it?"

Aunt Liu let out an earth-shattering "hum", then turned her head and went to the kitchen.

"Aunt Liu, I'll help you!" Xiang Hai quickly followed.

Seeing the two people walking away, Lu Songjiang picked up the big tea mug on the table, took a sip slowly, and then asked, "Xing Yue, to be honest, do you think Xiao Hai can do it?"

Although he was not sure whether he was asking about business ability or mental endurance, Xing Yue said without hesitation, "No problem, he will do it."

No matter which aspect Lu Songjiang refers to, he has confidence in Xiang Hai.

Lu Songjiang nodded and continued to sip his tea without asking any further questions.

At this time, Xing Yue rubbed his hands and asked carefully, "Old director, um, were you familiar with my dad before?"

Lu Songjiang was taken aback by this sudden question, and the water in his glass almost swung out.

He put the big tea mug back on the table and leaned back on the recliner, "It's not like we're very familiar with each other. It was after he became the director of the Municipal Bureau that we got to know each other more at work."

Xing Yue nodded, but didn't know what to ask next.

But Lu Songjiang went on to say, "In those years, when the Xing Bureau was in office, it handled many big cases, and the heads of several sub-bureaus in the various offices below convinced him."

He looked at Xing Yue and recalled, as if the person sitting in front of him was Xing Yiqing, "I was most impressed by a drug case. At that time, there was quite a commotion in that case, and it was also the last case handled by the Xing Bureau during his tenure. Later, He went to the provincial office."

"What case is it?" Xing Yue immediately became vigilant, "Did the case be solved later? Did he solve it? Did someone catch it?"

Lu Songjiang frowned deeply, as if desperately remembering.But after waiting for a while, he still shook his head, "I don't know the specific situation, I just heard that the case was a bit ups and downs. It was a lot of trouble at the beginning, but in the end only a few gangsters were caught and it was over."

"I remember that the Xingju Bureau was transferred before the case was concluded. Oh, it should be said that he was promoted. Later, the case was handled by the new director who came to replace him."

Xing Yue immediately asked again, "Who was the new director at that time?"

Lu Songjiang didn't answer, but slowly got up from the reclining chair, looked at him deeply, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Xing Yue scratched his hair unnaturally, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered this, so just ask."

Lu Songjiang gave a muffled hum, raised his hand over the big tea mug, blew on the tea leaves floating on the water, and said earnestly, "Xing Yue, we must work hard to solve this unresolved case. If the case is closed, it is closed. When it is closed, it means it is over."

Looking at him, Xing Yue felt that what he had said was as if he hadn't said it, a little inexplicable.

Lu Songjiang continued to stare at his big tea mug.

His tea was strong and hot, and the tea in the cup was dark and bottomless.

"Xingju is a good leader, a good policeman, and an amazing person." Lu Songjiang raised his eyes and looked at Xing Yue through the white air rising from the hot tea, "But this person, no matter how great he is, is not omnipotent. , there is a limit.”

"You are still young, and you have a long way to go. Maybe there will be a day when you can surpass Xingju."

"An old man like me is not capable, and I can't help you." His eyes sunk in the mist suddenly sharpened, "I only have one piece of advice, and it's for you, and for Xiao Hai."

"Everything should be done according to one's ability, understand?"
